    Want some 'vintage cut' Selvedge jeans from Luxire..but how to size?

    I am considering ordering some custom Selvedge jeans from Luxire, but I am not sure how to size. What I want are cut like a 1940's early 1950's style.

    I have a pair of men's dress shoes that I should part with. I have had them for 15-20 years.

    Gabardine Fabric...Who carries the good stuff?

    I want to have some high waisted slacks made (1940's early 50's style). Half the battle seems to be finding the right fabric. I like heavy gabardine. My vintage slacks are made from wonderful, heavy weight, gabardine. Is that even available anymore? I find lighter stuff, but I believe my vintage...
